We are aware that listnook appears hung over, and we are tracking down the cause now. Thank you for your patience.

Dammit listnook, if you're going act like a drunken degenerate, you can't live here anymore! Now take some aspirin, get your ass out of bed, and get to work!

Don't worry about it! I'll help by mashing the reload button like a spastic monkey every time one my pages fails to load. That's bound to fix it, right?

I haven't had any of the problems you listed, jedberg, but I am getting a weird "Ow! Listnook is under heavy load right now" message whenever I try to open 9 out of 10 pages.

>...listnook appears hung over... From my point of view it's more like a full-blown cardiac arrest with intermittent life signs.

Several *LONG* posts that I made seemed to submit successfully, but after checking later they were both gone from the thread itself AND from my submission history. I was hoping that they would show up after some time, but one post I made last night (over 12 hours ago) still has yet to show up in either place. Is there any chance these posts will be restored? Or should I begin the painstaking and depressing task of recreating them?

After a big night of partying, Listnook woke up hung over in bed with a girl named Digg.

Ok, look, all this open and honest communication of problems is wonderful guys, and by all means keep doing it. But, how about having a bit less server problems? That would save the hassle of having to publicly apologize every other week.

Thanks for putting this up. It always makes me feel better to see an announcement when Listnook isn't quite itself.

this really is not selling me on Amazon's EC2 services.

;_; *hnnnnnnng* please fix Listnook, ye gods of the internet, amen Somehow, the movingthroughcornsyrup-ness of Listnook feels worse than when Listnook is actually properly down. I find myself forgetting that Listnook's broken and writing long, thought-out comments, only to O_O at the red "submitting....", the "an error occurred while posting", and returning to my user page to find that my post has vanished into the internet ether. .... This is gonna happen when I click "save" 4 seconds from now, isn't it. Yup.

I don't really know how websites work but why do website constantly have to be updated when things seem to be fine? The updates usually seem to kill the site for a day or too...

Jedberg, I don't really want to buy Listnook merchandise right now, but if it would help get this site running smoothly again I will GIVE you money. Because without Listnook I have to filter my own internet and read things without comments. I can't vote. And it's f****** awful.

Maybe the admins got sick of people complaining about the search functionality and decided to take Listnook down for a while, to see what it's like *WITHOUT* Listnook and make you more appreciative of their work.

I have an orange envelope and I cannot manage to open my inbox because server dies on me. And they say waterboarding is torture?! Try this.

In the event of productivity lasting 4 or more hours, please contact us immediately.

Taking to long to do anything, forgetting actions we've taken seconds after they happened, sporadic moments where everything seems fine, this site isn't hungover, it's high as shit.

***I ------ LOOKED ------- AT --------DIGG!*** Im sorry, that's how desperate I was......Look what you've done Listnook... **LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE!!!!**

I am deeply appreciative of Listnook and considering it is not a pay site, have no reason to complain. However, when I cannot get my fix I tend to go into convulsions. They're only relieved by killing innocent strangers at night. So it's all your fault the murder rate in my city has risen dramatically since yesterday. P.S. my friend Dexter likes Listnook too.

I don't think every listnook announcement has to be funny especially when you are announcing something like this. We are losing money as we speak because of this issue.

>Thank you for your patience. Um... on what are you basing this?

[deleted]

I found the root cause: my employer is paying you to slow the site down so I will actually do work.

But I wasn't being patient at all

All my comments are still missing in my user page, something I noticed about a week ago. Is there somewhere I should report this?

the worst part is that my netvibes home page full of interesting RSS feeds is also crapped out. MY INTERNETS IS BROKED. WHATDAFUXAMIGONADO?

Can we have a sick alien icon?

I think Listnook needs to lay off the /b/ourbon.

Look, jed, maybe you need a refresher course. It's all ball bearings nowadays. Now you prepare that Fetzer valve with some 3-in-1 oil and some gauze pads. And yet gonna need 'bout ten quarts of anti-freeze, preferably Prestone. No, no make that Quaker State.

We now go to Ollie Williams and his BlaccuWeather report, Ollie what can you tell us about the trouble on listnook.com? Ollie: SITES DRUNK! Thanks Ollie...

Just pop in a Tylenol, Listnook! Hurryy... ;_;

>Symptoms may include votes not sticking, hides not hiding, posts missing from your profile page, strange envelope behavior, runny nose, fever, nausea, missing links from listings, mismatched comment counts and death. Is this why my pee pee hurts?

RSS feed hasnt' updated for me in a few hours too. this is not normal and is causing me to do work.

I almost started working on my paper that's due... then the page loaded.

Please include: some sublistnooks displaying posts only over a month old.

This was going on for how long before you acknowledged it?

Who the hell poured tequila into the servers last night??

Hungover? No, listnook is f****** tanked right now.

Hey, maybe it's that thing that happened before where there was like... a hard drive... or was it tape? And there were supposed to be two computers of some sort, but then there was only one so things were running really slow? And I think it had something to do with Internet traffic? Or weather? Feel free to DM me if you have any questions.

In related news, Scientists are totally baffled by the sudden onset of a mysterious epidemic which seems to selectively target IT professionals and makes them do what they are paid to do while being angry at everything for no reason at all.

Today?? Lol, i had it yesterday and I tried to put a post about it, then i deleted it because i thought it was working again....this was when no one was even saying anything about it, though submissions were going through (which was weird)

Posts previously saved (but no longer) showing on the saved tab. This worries me from a privacy perspective since I thought 'unsaving' would mean the fact that I ever had it saved would be lost.

Haha, suckers. I have a Listnook Gold (tm) account, and it's going fast as hell for me. I have 3 invites left for full speed listnook! I accept cash, credit, or cocaine....

Any idea why Listnook has been having problems over the past few months? I blame Ama[z](http://animeotaku.animeblogger.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/coolface.jpg)on.

HOW did we manage to spend a day without the ability to respond to other posts?!?!? Omg, I felt my tongue be stabbed with spikes when I couldn't reply back to posts.

Damn it. I *worked* yesterday, and now it seems like I might have to do it again today. Maybe I'll just go to Digg instead... nah, that seems like even *more work*.

I want my money back. Oh, and a link I posted has 1071 upvotes and 3 downvotes but it appears to have not calculated on my user account. Can you fix this too?

It can be a bumpy road sometimes and I don't care that much. But there's a sympton you didn't mention: comments diasappearing completely.

Great, now I have to actually read articles, instead of the top comment as summary. How will I know if the headline is biased or not?!?

Listnook's hung over too eh? I thought it was just me and the hang over was screwing with my perception of time...

Seriously? How can you **NOT** pander to our every need? I am very upset, and wish to make a formal complaint.

Are submissions that never show up part of the current set of symptoms, or is that a different issue?

Maybe its budget deficit (users/posts) has reached a limit and it can't sustain itself anymore.

Did my saved links disappearing a week ago have anything to do with the corruption?

FWIW EC2 us-east-1d has been supremely flaky for me for the past couple days

It also seems that the highest voted comments are at the bottom of the page.

found the issue: it's the hispanic and tan servers in arizona are trying to ship all their data to california, causing deadlocks.

We still love you none the less. Slave faster tho. xoxo

**GLAD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE**

The phantom envelope: the cruelest glitch of all.

I still can't open my orangered enveope ;_;

noooo my interwebs is all unorganized....

How much did listnook drink last night?

Listnook has diarrhea of the database.

It was 4Chan... i just know it was.

a*** bleeding ? seriously now, what was the cause of the problem ?

More like impatience. Am I right?

> We are aware that listnook appears hung That's what she said.

Cause of death: Listnook accident

It seems I can upvote myself...

This is unacceptable! I demand my money back!

I want Etab's money back!

Still faster than digg. :)

Check the rectum for an eel.

It's back! :D

try jimmyr

Bout time.

Sad day..

Mirror?

More of a Sunday beer shits morning if you ask me.

listnook accidentally the whole thing

Is the 'vote up' button by my comment working? I can't tell...

DAMN LISTNOOK YOU SCARY!
